Ruby Training in September Announcement
As a Pragmatic Studio alumni, I can tell you how valuable in-person training is. It covers so much more than any books or screencasts as you can actually ask questions and cover topics other students may bring up. Here’s an announcement from David Black, the author of Well-Grounded Rubyist and my fellow New Jerseyian.
Hi everyone –
I am delighted to announce an upcoming Ruby Power and Light training
course, to be taught jointly by me and Erik Kastner:Introduction to Ruby
September 14-17
Edison, New Jersey, USAThe course will be held at the new, very up-to-date training facilities
of Exceed Education in the Raritan Center. There are lots of hotels in
the Raritan Center itself, and nearby.It’s an intro course, but fast-paced. Erik and I will start you out
with basic Ruby syntax and techniques, and take you through the Ruby
object model, built-in classes, string and text handling, sockets and
network programming, code testing, metaprogramming, and many more
subtopics. There’s lots of hands-on work and mentoring from both
instructors.The course is ideal for you if you are:
* a programmer who’s new to Ruby
* a Rubyist who wants to review and learn the language deeply and
systematicallyThe cost for this four-day course is: $1600 early-bird (through August
30), $1750 regular (August 31-September 10).For more info, see the course page at Exceed Education:
